D'Alceo Rampolla Castle 2019

From the heart of the Conca d'Oro in Panzano in Chianti, the Castello dei Rampolla winery is an icon of Tuscan viticulture and a pioneer of biodynamics. The 2019 d'Alceo is a cult wine and an extraordinary expression of power and elegance, the result of a skillful selection of grapes that enhance the area's unique terroir. With an alcohol content of 14.5%, the wine is a masterfully balanced blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, aged for approximately 18 months in oak barrels.

This wine features an intense ruby ​​red color and a remarkably complex aroma. The nose opens with notes of black berry fruit, such as blueberries and blackberries, enriched with hints of licorice, sweet spices, leather, and a touch of balsamic. On the palate, the 2019 d'Alceo reveals an imposing structure yet a velvety finesse. The tannins are dense and silky, perfectly integrated, while the vibrant freshness promises a very long evolution in the bottle. The finish is incredibly long and persistent, a true masterpiece of harmony. This wine pairs perfectly with rich roasts, game birds, and mature cheeses.
